Recruitment agency in the Eastern Townships

A regional metropolis, manufacturing towns, tourist hubs: the Eastern Townships call for an approach tailored to each community.

The market

What to know before hiring here.

The Estrie region, also known as the Eastern Townships, combines a regional university metropolis, Sherbrooke, with manufacturing towns like Granby and tourist hubs like Magog. Businesses there recruit varied profiles, often with a common challenge: attracting people from outside the region.

We present the job, but also the living environment: housing costs, proximity to nature, quality of life. For many candidates, that's what tips the balance.

Employers in the region

Sherbrooke: health care, technology, universities

Sherbrooke is at once a university centre, a health care hub and a location for technology and manufacturing companies. Searches cover technicians, engineers, administrative professionals and management roles. Our Sherbrooke recruitment page details the issues.

Granby and Magog: manufacturing, plastics, tourism

Granby, at the gateway to the Eastern Townships, has a base of manufacturers, especially in plastics and processing, as well as significant tourism activity. Magog mixes manufacturing SMEs and tourism-related services around Lake Memphremagog.

Needs range from production workers to plant managers, with seasons that influence hiring.

Attracting candidates from elsewhere

The local talent pool isn't always enough. We actively look for candidates in the Montréal and Montérégie regions who are open to settling in the Eastern Townships, and we support their decision with concrete information about the job and the region.
